This one has a cream base layer and contrast and I have used two papers the same and joined them, using some gorgeous lace from Crafty Ribbons and a little pink ribbon from stash to hide the join. I then just added the dies, the bling and the sentiment.

I would like to say thank you to all of my followers for visiting and leaving such inspirational comments, I will be hopping over shortly.Hugs

This one has white as the base layer and the contrast. I added those pretty papers before adding the scene, stamping the sentiment and then adding the glittered up butterfly. I added glitter to the tops of the cottage and trees and the butterfly body has been frantaged in vintage silver.

What has happened to all the lovely warm weather, I have put my Summer stuff away and got my warmer clothes out. Do you think it has anything to do with me being in Winter Christmas Card Creating mode?

On that note here is another CAS Christmas Card using those Cardio - Majestix stamps, will be adding this to my box for the Christmas fayres.

I used a white card blank and used one layer of black card stock to frame the white card I stamped onto. I added stickles for that Christmas sparkle

I used the green mirror card for the base and contrast and my MFT pierced circle dies to cut out the image and it's frame. I decorated with Phil Martin's cosmic shimmer red they look like little berries ;)

This is the card closed, showing those lovely papers as well as the image

and below is the image up close, it is coloured in copics to match the papers with some glossy accents for his nose and some stickles for added twinkle.

I would like to say hello and thank you to all of my visitors, I will be hopping over shortly.

I used a base layer and contrast of cream. I placed those lovely papers on top of the base layer, before adding two strips of holly punched edging down the sides to hold the acetate. I added the coloured image on the beautiful die, before adding a strip of acetate slightly longer than the card to create the bow front, when placed into the holly punched edges. I then finished off with Phil Martin cosmic shimmer in the red and a string of pearls on each side.

This is the side view showing the snowy acetate bow front

The image is coloured in copics with glossy accents on the balloons and some stickles on the poinsettia centre.

As always I would like to thank all of my lovely visitors for your lovely comments and I will be over to see you soon

This is a 6" card blank from WhichCraft, with those lovely scalloped edges

I have only used white cardstock and stickles frosted lace and some rhinestones to create this card.

I ran the top layer through my grandcallibur using the large butterfly to emboss only, before layering up the lovely new frames with foam tape and adding the stickles around the edges on the small butterflies and then the rhinestones to finish.

Such a frosted look

I decided to go a little vintage again and tried out my first ever book folding. I made this for a birthday present, I just now need to figure out how to present it.

I first off located my book and then obtained the pattern, before spending a week relaxing and folding, in the sun. I decorated the back of the book in decoupage papers as it was a little unsightly before adding some flowers with brad centres and of course the lovely worded ribbon from Crafty Ribbons

I made the card base and then cut away most of the front. I added a piece of acetate the same size as the back to the front. I covered this with a piece of green card layered with those gorgeous new papers to cover the join of the card to the acetate. I then added the panel at the back in the same layers. I had coloured up my image, so I cut around this and placed it on the front on the acetate. I added some ribbon and a string of pearls to the top front, a daisy and some holly glittered up to the front left and then added lots of tiny pearls for a snow effect. The sentiment on this one is from my stash.

here is a close up of this new image coloured in copics, with some Atyou glitter pens, a sakuro clear star glitter pen and a little platinum stickles along with some glossy accents for the balloons.

As always I would like to say thank you to all of my lovely visitors for their wonderful comments, I will be hopping over to see you shortly, well once I have finished playing ;)

I would like to enter this little number into the following challenges

This is a 6" square card with scallop edges and comes in a white depth box

The base layer and contrast is grey and I have used a Martha Stewart PATP to create the centre panel. I cut out the image with the grand nestie oval and then added the border using the matching scallop die. I added some gorgeous grey ribbon in a triple layer single bow, before adding a fancy button a two little flowers, finishing off with the little pearls.

I coloured this image in with distress inks as I love the soft water colour effect they give.

I made a card for Winnie recently, this was a huge thing for Winnie as through the power of Social Media and Media she received so many cards making her 100th Birthday so very special.

So here was the card I sent in for her

I used a lovely soft peach card stock as my base layer and contrast. The top layer is stamped to match with swirls and a peach ink. I added white and peach florals, a little rhinestone heart, some little peach pearls. The ribbon of course, a rhinestone heart and a little charm.

The base layer and contrast is a lovely vintage gold which works so well with those lovely new papers from the Silverton Hall pack. I used my Martha Stewart PATP to create the centre layer and used the grand nestie ovals circle to cut out and scallop to frame the image. I then added a lovely ribbon from

Today I am sharing with you a card order for a little girl that I received, the brief, my little pony, pink, purple and glitter, here is how I got on.

A 6" square scallop edge card, which was presented in a white depth box

I sued white glitter card for the base layer and contrast and some Papermania capsule collection purple papers. I added three layers in panels before adding some pleated baby pink ribbon, a string of pearls, three little bows, a banner computer generated sentiment, a little rose and finished off not with pearls but with liquid pearls in a glittery pinky/red (for safety) I used the doily MS punch for the end of the banner.

oh the image was off the web it was one of those colour me ones :)

It is for sale on my Facebook page

I picked up the contrast from the lovely papers and used this through out. I added an edge punched panel using a Martha Stewart PATP edge punch and gave detail to the corners using the corner punch. I added a string of pearls, a little blossom flower, a rhinestone sparkler and some gorgeous ribbon creating a triple layer single bow. I finished off with little pearls around the frames and in the corners.

Here is a close up of the image and on this one I have used my inktense pencils for the soft but vibrant look.
